Oh no, they have big plans. It's going to be a multi-storey (3 to 5 floors) affair, with one entire floor being a museum! The American owner would be keeping his cars there (Enzo!) and Scott mentioned he's in the process of getting MS' F2004 just for it! With that large of a place, it'll definitely be more than just a showroom.
That's very good to hear! i love to see it. however, how is the business here going to support it? i think mr. ross is a great business man and have all the answers. but, looking at the exotic car market in vancouver (+ BC + AB) ... it is a little disappointing... granted the f430 is a nice car and supposedly there is a waitlist on it (as with every new exotic car), have they sold their 612 and the remaining CS? not only that, but their maserati sales have been disappointing. not particular to their dealership, but also, how many DB9's are sold there? Continental GT's? sorry for going OT. so, here's a spotter: Orange Murcielago w/ AB plate at weissach.
Wowza, I'll have to get an apartment in the area with a perfect view on those beauties. When we we're talking about the dealership's relocation about a year ago, there was a mention that there would be an F40 on static display. Sounds like Mr. Ross has a beautiful collection going! P.S. But MS's F2004GA would be the cherry on top!
Paper with words "It is Sold" is put on the windscreen of the murcielago roadster in Weissach showroom.
There was a rumour that the sold tag would be placed on after the Calgary Show, if you get what I mean. I don't know and I'm sure there are lots of rumours, but just something to consider. I know I would like to see it! I can't imagine two roadsters in Calgary already!

No kidding that Maserati sales have been going for the sh!ts, but that's across the whole market. Not really strong here in North America. They sell, just not in the numbers Ferrari thought it would be (the reason why they sold it to Fiat?). When I was there last week, there was a guy that came in to look at the QP. He got in, started it up, played with it a bit and I overheard him saying he'd get back to Scott about it. There was also a guy there, who just finished placing an order on a 575. Scott said that they're bringing in 24 F430's... Yes, 24 of them. I don't see why he would BS a figure like that, but maybe he did to show off. There's what, 2 million living in Vancouver now?... Lots of rich people around (not me though). Quite possible it is true.

Saw this too when I picked up my car: red 430 coupe at FMoV (autoshow car) Not as different from the 360 or as muscular as the photos suggest. Sunny
I've seen that car a few times when I've been out there. Mugello Green, or something like that. Now right on a Ferrari, IMHO. I'm not a big green fan, but that really is a BAD green...
] good to hear about new cars in the area....I have a feeling theres a lot more f cars in vancouver then we think!
You say new cars, but I've seen the car a couple times, going back 4-5 years. For some reason, I've seen it mostly in different parkades downtown and never "in the wild".
